He could see the brooms waiting for them. And a box. And... there were noises coming from the box. Giggles? What on earth could that be?

And why had he arrived so early? Feeling queasy now, Harvey tried to hide within his cloak and pretend he wasn't there.

The poor kid must be cold, Justin thought.

It wasn't the same but it was something she loved and she wouldn't pass up an opportunity to enjoy it here at school.

"Hello Sir," The second year greeted cheerfully. Her gaze left the groundskeeper for only a moment to eye the mysterious trunk and her eyebrows went up. Hm. Hopefully there were no pixies in there. She'd had enough of those to last a lifetime.

"Well, hello Miss Botros."

It was only then she realized she could have just summoned Langley, her broom.

Speaking of brooms, how was Charlie, the hogwarts broom she rode her first year? Hads did feel a pang of regret and guilt she wasn't riding him anymore, but Langley was a terribly jealous broom. Still it was hard to say which broom she connected with more, Langley, or Charlie.

Once Hadley had caught her breath again, she straightened up and waved to the Professor. "Hey, Professor McLeod." That felt weird to say.

Professor McLeod. Merlin, he hadn't been addressed as such since the seventies. He smiled, "Hello Miss Denaker." She brought her own broom it looks good. Good, good.

They get to go to flying classes!!

Tenacius grabbed his brand spankin new racer broom and zoomed for the pitch so fast, he was probably a few clicks short of breaking the sound barrier. Was it cold? He couldnt feel it even if icicles were growing on his face. He was just that PUMPED!

"Hey there Sir Mcleod!" the boy greeted the Groundskeeper ~~gamer~~ enthusiastically. See his shiny new broom yeah? He's very proud.

He waved hello to the other students already assembled-- Hadley and Harvey he knew, the other Slytherin girl, he didnt, but pleasantries to all of them. And there be a giggling coming from somewhere? Momentarily distracted from his awesome broom to try to figure out where its coming from.

Well, if it wasn't the felllow gamer. "Hello Master Salander. I see you brought your own broom today."

Azura loved to fly and she was so excited that they were open to third years! Was it cold? Yes! Did she care? No!

She had her cloak on and in her hand was her broom from home. She had gotten a new one over the summer. She walked down to the pitch and smiled at the other people who had gathered. She was glad to see she wasn't that she wasn't the only third year there too.

"Hello Sir. " Az said as she waved towards the Professor.

"Hello Haddie, Tenacius! " She said as she waved at her fellow third years, she sent waves to the other kids gathered before she blinked a little..

Was that box.. giggling?

"Hello Miss Snow."

Justin was keeping an eye on this quiet one. The quiet ones always did the most surprises.

"Hello" she greeted the groundskeeper while skipping to a stop right before him.

"Hello there Miss Griffel." Lots of eager students today.

Checking his watch, Justin could see it was about time to start. So with that he then took his whistle to blow a sharp whistle, "Alright everyone, gather round." Waiting until everyone got his attention before continuing. "Well, now. I'm glad to see you all have made it today for your Flying lesson. Starting this term I'll also be covering Flying. Mr. McLeod, Professor or Sir is fine to address me as if you so choose. Now then, we're going to be covering some of the basics today before taking flight." Didn't that sound fun?

Now then, "What's the most important thing to remember when taking flight with a broom?" There were quite a number of them to keep in mind after all.
